Here we report three-dimensional structures of three large ornate bacterial RNAs using cryo-electron ...The structures of natural RNAs remain poorly characterized and may hold numerous surprises. Here we report three-dimensional structures of three large ornate bacterial RNAs using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). GOLLD (Giant, Ornate, Lake- and Lactobacillales-Derived), ROOL (Rumen-Originating, Ornate, Large) and OLE (Ornate Large Extremophilic) RNAs form homo-oligomeric complexes whose stoichiometries are retained at lower concentrations than measured in cells. OLE RNA forms a dimeric complex with long co-axial pipes spanning two monomers. Both GOLLD and ROOL form distinct RNA-only multimeric nanocages with diameters larger than the ribosome, each empty except for a disordered loop. Extensive intramolecular and intermolecular A-minor interactions, kissing loops, an unusual A-A helix and other interactions stabilize the three complexes. Sequence covariation analysis of these large RNAs reveals evolutionary conservation of intermolecular interactions, supporting the biological importance of large, ornate RNA quaternary structures that can assemble without any involvement of proteins.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.

Yorodumi

Thousand views of thousand structures

  • Yorodumi is a browser for structure data from EMDB, PDB, SASBDB, etc.
  • This page is also the successor to EM Navigator detail page, and also detail information page/front-end page for Omokage search.
  • The word "yorodu" (or yorozu) is an old Japanese word meaning "ten thousand". "mi" (miru) is to see.
